The international criminal court has issued another arrest warrant for Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the former Security Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes in Gaza.

However they did emphasize that Israel’s acceptance of the court's jurisdiction is not required.

Repeated launches of rockets from Lebanon in the direction of Haifa, northwestern Israel.

Reportedly from Haifa

Strong explosions were reported in Haifa.

Israeli airstrikes continue to target the centre of Rafah city in southernmost Gaza.

A month and a half ago, Israel claimed that they cleared Rafah from Hamas control, eliminating their four battalions stationed there. But the fact that they are continuing to shell and conduct airstrikes on the city indicates that this still isn’t true.

Very little fighting is ongoing in the city as Hamas has nearly been wiped out there. Some remnants of the Rafah battalion stationed in the Tal al-sultan suburb as well as forces in the Rafah refugee camp and the city centre are probably still resisting, but it has turned into full-on guerrilla warfare now, in fact you could even call it an insurgency.

The IDF stated that five rockets were launched from Lebanon towards Krayot (north of Haifa), but that Israeli air defence only intercepted “some” of the targets.

A new video shows Israeli air defence active over Haifa.

Geolocated footage indicates that Russian forces continue to slowly advance in Terny and have entered the centre of the village.

Following reports of Ukrainian counterattacks which likely slowed down the Russian advance, Russian forces, possibly after regrouping, restarted assault operations inside the village. Supported by artillery and FAB glide bombs, they continued to slowly move south and clear out the Ukrainian positions in the basements of houses.

Their current goal is likely to reach the bridge which leads over the reservoirs of the Zherebets river and cut off what small amounts of supplies might still be moving across it.

+ ~0.72km² in favour of Russia

Recent reports state that Russian forces broke through Ukrainian lines in the direction of Velyka Novosilka for ~9km and reached the eastern outskirts of the town.

Starting off with what is likely true, Russian forces advanced from positions around Novodonetske and up the southern bank of the Shaitanka river. They also likely advanced along the highway to Velyka Novosilka and along some treelines to the north.

As for less reliable reports, Russian forces reportedly advanced to the eastern outskirts of Velyka Novosilka, reaching the agricultural buildings a few hundred metres from the eastern residential areas of the town. They also reportedly advanced around Ukrainian positions by the river, creating a small salient. This advance would've been supported by another assault vector along the road from the northeast.

The buffer zone around Shakhtarske was also reportedly expanded, with Russian troops seizing multiple more treelines northwest of the village.

Additionally, Russia reportedly advanced in the direction of Rozdolne, and are now less than a kilometer from its eastern outskirts.

A recent report states that Ukrainian forces cleared out Russian trench positions north of Mykolaivka in the Pokrovsk direction, gaining a foothold in the forest plantations.

A Russian soldier fighting in Sontsivka reported that Ukraine recaptured the centre of the village and entered the northeastern residential area, taking up positions there.

A recent report from a Ukrainian source states that Russian forces have advanced into the high-rise buildings in the centre of Kurakhove, with battles slowly moving westward.
